A raised floor (also raised flooring) is a type of floor used in office buildings (such as IT data centers)
with a high requirement for servicing to carry cables, wiring, and electrical supply.
Additional structuralsupport and lighting are often provided when a floor is raised enough for a person to crawl
or even walk beneath.

The installation of a raised floor system can change the thermal behaviour of the building by reducing the interaction
between the heat gains and the thermally massive concrete slab.
The raised floor serves as a separation between the room and the slab.
